On-Vehicle vs. Drip Pans: Catch Leaks Wherever You Park

On-Vehicle vs. Drip Pans: Catch Leaks Wherever You Park

Your Leaking Car Moves, So Should Your Protection

If you are leaking oil, cardboard may partially work for a short time, but only while in the garage. Drip pans help work better while in the garage if you if you always park perfectly over the. But what protects the ground when you are out driving and parking outside of your garage?  Oil Jock is with your vehicle 24/7 in your garage in California or on your drive to Miami, so oil leak containment is always wherever your car goes.

Oil Leak Containment Options - Compare at a Glance

  • Portability: On-vehicle (always there) vs. drip pans (always somewhere else)
  • Accuracy: Captures at the source vs. “hope you parked just right”
  • Weather: Hydrophobic pad vs. soggy cardboard
  • Cleanliness: No surprise stains at work, hotels, family members' homes, or campgrounds

Total Cost of Clean

  • Drip pans + cleanup supplies add up
  • On-vehicle containment reduces cleanup labor and embarrassment
  • Repairing small leaks can cost $5000+

When a Pan Still Helps

  • In-garage maintenance projects (use under the bench)
  • Heavy leak diagnostics (as an extra safeguard)

Drive More. Leak Less.
